36 Years ago, with a peaked curiosity, I dove feverishly into the world of storm chasing and well, the rest is history. Fast forward a few years and my current journey in storm photography & videography has unlocked a completely new life that I never imagined would exist. Oh how my adventures continue...

 

Mother Nature definitely orchestrated her magic on this first storm chase of the season. Warm front had positioned itself right over the state of Nebraska. Pulling in all that warm moist air from the south created the perfect conditions for severe thunderstorm development. I was on the hunt & wouldn't be denied this day.

 

Supercell #3

Hwy 6 westbound to Holdrege Nebraska. Where I encountered this Monster Supercell just to the west of Holdrege Nebraska.

 

Nicely defined structure on this storm cell as it crested almost due east towards my location.

Primed and Set for a new year of Chasing Severe Weather throughout Tornado Alley. This was close to home and not a huge jaunt across several states to find those severe storms. Instead this was just really a test run for the real thing coming soon to our neck of the woods.

 

Pulse storms forming over a marginal risk area for the afternoon. First of the year in fact so the possibility of a few severe storms were not out of the question.

 

All in all... It was good to get out and dust the cobwebs off the old dslr! Some nice views from North Central Kansas and South Central Nebraska that afternoon and evening!

The Shelf Cloud had just passed over my location. Pointing almost due south... a brilliant bright lightning strike flash illuminates a vast landscape with dark clouds gathering in the sky. The rural road curves towards a distant horizon under a striking violet light.

This Majestically Beautiful Supercell was loosing steam.. She wouldn't be downgraded until she went south of Nebraska I-80 Corridor between Kearney & Gibbon.

 

I didn't have time to stop in Kearney long enough, due to I was racing the sunset and still trying to stay in front of the storm. Incredible CC & CG Lighting filled the sky every few seconds as I could hear the Civil Defense (Tornado Sirens) firing off in the City of Kearney & Gibbon Nebraska.

 

I would eventually realign myself in front of the storm after sunset to get some good lightning firing off. It wasn't the end that days chase. We had another Thunderstorm, severe warned right behind this one... This was to good to be true....Oh what a night!!!

I couldn't believe it... Another late night storm and this one was brief but packed a punch and some nice lightning as it passed to the northwest of Kearney

 

Usually by this time in any year here in Nebraska our storm season is way over. Not that way in 2021. Our severe weather pattern stayed active all the way til late December 2021.

Storm Chasing Video from afternoon on Flickr Click Here

 

Late August here in Nebraska. I usually would be chasing out in Western Nebraska Eastern Colorado this time of year. Mother Nature made it dry as a desert here. Record Heat & drought in 2022 on the plains of Nebraska. This was the ONLY storm that came into range for the whole month.

 

Gear was prepped & ready for a month....I was prepared that afternoon. A short jaunt to my east and then north. Irrigated Corn this time of year here is about 14 feet & it will be ready for harvest soon.

 

Had to find a good location where there was no tall corn. Found a hill with a perfect view. Lucky to find an open view with all that corn!

 

Though this didn't produce a tornado. Really good definition of a rotation wall cloud under this supercell. Glad I went out that day to capture these phenomenal snaps!

 

Enjoy!

This Day's pressure cooker was in session. Lot's of gulf moisture to play with. With that in mind, Mother Nature had some plans for us that afternoon. Of Course, I was prepared. Knew this situation was going to give us some excellent severe weather views that afternoon. I was on the Hunt!

 

Alerts & Alarms were firing right after 2:00pm as I headed west from Kearney. Severe Thunderstorm warnings had been issued to my southwest by Arapahoe & Holdrege Nebraska. Coming directly from Furnas & Phelps Counties this storm was packing a heavy punch for October.

 

Pulled up & onto 1 of the bluffs just north of Elm Creek Nebraska. Nice view over the Platte Valley as this nasty bugger came to play! Would eventually catch 2 tornadoes this day... Which is rare. Glad I had the time to capture this event! It was a Hoot!

It storm chasing go time this time of year. Another phenomenal day of storm chasing was upon us in South Central Nebraska.

 

We had another moderate risk day, as the sky was again talking to me. Best of all this was going to be a local chase day.

 

The storm cell I was chasing most of the day had weakened and the boundary for severe weather was to my west. I had to get north and east via Hwy 36. Ended up parked just south of Phillips Nebraska.

 

This new cell had warnings on it as I was approaching from the east. Now with good rotation detected on this side of the storm. Building, and getting wound up, this storm meant business.

 

I was in the perfect position to capture another severe weather photographic treat....

Mid May 2026

 

We finally had our first bout of severe weather after a horrendous drought season. We welcome the rain but not the severe weather. But an actuality when severe weather approaches that's when I shine....

 

Day 2 of Severe weather events across Nebraska. My adult daughter by my side. She didn't want to miss out on this years severe weather events as her passion equals mine... She wasn't going to be disappointed this day!

 

We grabbed the gear and headed deep in Central Nebraska that afternoon. Long story short... We avoided the Chaser Convergence & planned it out perfectly.

Lost the last light of the day... Slide back into the city limits to have the city lights paint the sky. Best way to get the low level light to work for me!

 

Sporadic cloud to ground lightning. More so the cloud to cloud lightning was illuminating this shelf cloud & underbelly of this storm. It was a fast mover so not many but a few gems to close out this night.

2023 sure has had a strange weather pattern. Almost a whole month late to our severe weather season here in south central Nebraska. Little would I know that coming weeks I will find what I've been seeking...

 

This was the first severe storm with a warning to come into play. In actuality there were 2 storms. This first storm was really defined & had some good visual rotation. The storm behind it with the intense hail core would steal all of this first storm's energy....

 

Supercell in play... what an epic view this storm had to offer!!!

First moderate risk day of the year out in Western Nebraska. We decided to head out early to catch the action.

 

Was trying to Twitch Stream (streaming link down below) our chase this day, though my HD camera decided otherwise. Had many technical glitches that afternoon and I'm happy mishaps happen on the first chase of the year. Prepares the next adventure without failure.

 

First storm erupted north of Grant Nebraska but I was messing around with the live feed and didn't take any snaps... put the problems aside and moved north to Ogallala Nebraska to catch this dying cell.

 

Not many pics in this set but was caught was worth every second to get out of the house for a few hours!

These next 24 hours would very interesting. I was in the 100% Totality Zone for the solar eclipse the next day. So the camera was ready. Snagged it from the charger and I was off.

 

Had to work in about an hour. Of course I was waiting most of the afternoon for these storms to come closer and they eventually did...

 

A few wicked good lightning shots captured that evening!

Wasn't looking forward to the 3 hour drive back home. What was left of the storm was a HP mess. I sat back for about 30 minutes and let the rain push east. After I got my bearings, I was headed east.

 

Sun was setting. I was under the perfect light conditions. Back side of the storm, via Hwy 6/34. I couldn't have asked a better photographic opportunity.

This was my first opportunity to catch this frivolous night of electrical delights! (I've caught many more in 2023)

 

Yeah, I've caught some lightning earlier in 2023, but I actually dedicate time specifically for lighting. This was one of those nights. In fact the first one of 2023.

We had to pack up and move south via Hwy 283 South then Head due east of Hwy 89. This route takes us though Beaver City, Orleans, and eventually just north of Alma Nebraska.

 

Now just west of Orleans Nebraska. Meso on this storm was getting well defined. Definite rotation and we were under it. Pulled ahead of the storm about 5 to 6 miles to get this next set of jaw dropping images.

Hail core was right on top of my location. Big stones this time with over quarter sized hail. Already broke my windshield this day in 2 places... didn't want a 3rd. Had to pack up my gear and headed south to Benkelman Nebraska.

 

This severe warned storm cell was moving almost due south. I had positioned myself again in front of the advancing outflow.

 

There is something special about the landscape in southwest Nebraska. More wheat fields than corn. It was surreal. Especially with this incredible structure on this storm.

 

I really enjoyed the photographic opportunities this day....Some of my best storm chasing photography for 2016! Enjoy!

It was my last hurrah for 2017.

 

Hwy 183 Northbound..

 

It took some time, and I didn't waste any to get back into position.

 

The winds were ferocious. I couldn't keep a steady shot. I jimmy rigged it and finally got it steady enough in the wind to get these final shots of the year.

 

It was worth my time and effort this day. Some of my best to end the 2017 Storm Chasing Season.

Unpacked and gear out close to home as a non severe thunderstorm approached from the due south of Kearney Nebraska. Just on the outskirts of the city just to the east of Kearney High school .

 

A few pics that didn't make it to my Flickr Photostream in 2020. So I'm adding them now.

 

I do so much sky photography and at that time of year when I take these, they sometimes get lost within the fold. So at the end of each year I find a few that are worthy of being posted!

This would be the Tornado Day... and as little as we have had for storms I wasn't going to risk the chance of not being out that afternoon and evening. Of course I wouldn't be feeling the best, but of course I'm a trooper and if there are storms I'm there... sick or not sick.

 

Gussied up the dredge and grabbed my chase partner for that day and we headed south. Not to know what to expect as we had a high risk for tornadoes that afternoon. This was the first severe cell of the day. It would not be the last...

One of my best Stacks....

Seen on Several National News Services on July 24, 2015

 

We pulled way north and got back into southern Nebraska. Now on the backside of this thunderstorm. Intense cc lighting was to good to pass up.

 

We pulled off just north of Alma Nebraska. Pointed the lens due south and captured some of the best lightning of 2015

Spring is in the Nebraska Air!!!

 

I didn't have to wait very long for my first storm opportunity. Though this was not a severe storm and it was only one cell.

 

We had briefings from the weather service about possible non severe thunderstorms for that afternoon. I have been wanting to get out to get some cloud action and I wasn't going to get disappointed.

 

I know what I'm looking for when it comes to storm cloud structure. This was a good way to start off the year. Close to home and it couldn't have been more photogenic!

Due to the El Niño (The Super El Niño that is forming in the Pacific) is going to hinder the storm development this year here in Nebraska.

 

I'll be honest. Our weather pattern here is not favorable for development of severe weather in 2023. June usually comes in with a boom. Simply it hasn't. 30 Day models right now have all the storms north & south of Nebraska. It is the Omega Bubble effect & Nebraska is Bullseye for 2023. So I'm gonna take what I can get.

 

I have been ailing a really bad back injury from years past. Hindered my chasing in mid to late May. Was unable to do so because I simply couldn't get into my truck.

 

Feeling better the first part of June I pulled out the cams out in front of the homestead & captured this nice early June storm here in south central Nebraska. Severe Warned but that was about it. Had some small hail & much need rain.

 

I enjoyed getting out & back on the Hunt!

Final Pics of this Series...

 

Dark storm clouds dominate the sky, rolling ominously over a flat, green landscape. The atmosphere conveys an impending sense of powerful weather activity with dramatic lighting and shadows.

Strong cells will billowing past the cap and towers were forming to our south and to our west. Out of nowhere, things went severe fast as I got lucky to be in the right place at the right time.

 

Now officially there was no warning from the NWS but these pics tell the tail. We would eventually be under the rotation of the first developing cells of the day.

 

This particular cell had all the right conditions to form a tornado, but the storm didn't tighten and she never did produce a funnel.

****

Editors Note...

 

Once a year a pull out a few sets from years past to start of the new year. In 2024 this year I have went back & revamped one of my favorite severe storms photo shoots of 2018

 

Back then I over colorized & over saturated the images. Pixelated & not my best work... Images were what I wanted but not the final product. If you want to see those to compare to these remastered images... here is your Flickr Link to that set of images...

Click Here

 

But these are Gems of Gems.. I've even added about 50+ images in this set that I wasn't able to work on back in 2018. I even made a video with the old images to kick off the 2023 season... You can watch this right here on Flickr... Click Here ** Please remember I used the old images in this video **

 

Lightning is my forte... It is why I chase storms. To have an photo opportunity come up like this & traveled only 6 blocks from my home to get these pics...Gotta Luv Nebraska!

About that evening...

 

An epic night of sunset light and storm light @ twilight. Its almost every storm chasers dreams... or at least, in my own opinion, to get along side of a storm like this, as its firing away some incredible CC & CG every few seconds. What more could you ask for...

 

I was that Lucky Guy that evening. Just mother nature and I. Close to home after a few long storm chasing jaunts is just fine by me. She was producing and I was capturing every incredible second of this storm.. No Forking Bolt went away that evening without me getting a snap of its presence..

Just a small jaunt to the east, and I was just south of Kearney. This storm cell was gaining speed and size. Now with a wicked good shelf cloud was developing on the outer northeast section of this storm cell.

 

Again, in perfect position to capture all her glory!

 

This storm cell eventually developed into a monster with quarter sized hail and 60+mph wind speeds. This was a terrific photographic beast. A dangerous but a fruitful basket of storm chasing eye candy!

You've gotta take the good days with the bad. Not all storm chases are going to be the one for the record books... hence this day.

 

Nice moderate risk day right on the Nebraska Kansas Border. We were in position again for a good chase but the storms formed just to our north and we stayed put due to guess on where the Cap was going to break that day.

 

On our way back we had our one chance that day. The cell went severe warned and we were on the back side of it. Nothing spectacular but this was the highlight of the day!

6th Year in a row we have had a severe thunderstorm pop in south central Nebraska late evening on the 4th of July. Thousands of strikes and the cloud to cloud lightning was simply breathtaking.

 

This storm crested right south of the I-80 Nebraska corridor, which is just south of Kearney. It was stationary for about an hour and then it pushed a little east before it grew and slowly moved to the southeast into North Central Kansas.

It was my last hurrah for 2017.

 

Hwy 183 Northbound..

 

It took some time, and I didn't waste any to get back into position.

 

The winds were ferocious. I couldn't keep a steady shot. I jimmy rigged it and finally got it steady enough in the wind to get these final shots of the year.

 

It was worth my time and effort this day. Some of my best to end the 2017 Storm Chasing Season.

A dramatic supercell storm cloud looms over a rural landscape, with a dirt road stretching into the distance alongside fields. The ominous sky creates a stark contrast with the tranquil scene below, highlighting the power of nature.

Watch the Video from that evenings final pics of Sunset & Mammatus Clouds from August 13, 2019 on Flickr Click Here

 

We had a long drive back to home! Behind the storm that afternoon was a full lit sky of mammatus cloud. We had to wait for the sun to peek out behind the clouds but that is when the real magic happened. The sky at dusk was simply epic!

 

An experienced... storm chaser knows that after the storm is one of the most photogenic parts of the storm. Some of the best shots I've ever taken have been on the backside of a thunderstorm. I call them Thundersets!

 

Now...if your not a storm chaser and one is patient enough to wait for the base of the storm to move with the limits of the sunset light. Special things can happen, have your camera ready there is always some magic happening!

 

This was that experience. There is no place like Nebraska!

It was to good to be true, but right after sunset a secondary small non severe thunderstorm started to brew just to the southwest of Kearney.

 

Even though I just had a spectacular afternoon of some incredible stormscapes, I was in for a treat this night. An electrified thriller, one storm that I wont soon forget.

Though all of our planning had us hoping for an epic chase day, but mother nature had other plans...

 

Traveled to western Nebraska to wait for the initiation of severe storms either in the Northeast section of Colorado or where the cape and moisture signatures were predicted for that afternoon and evening. We had our hopes up. The CAP would prevent any development of storms for us that day...

 

We had to move from eastern Colorado down to Northwest Kansas. Where....Finally thunderstorm initiation started just to the south of St. Francis Kansas. Not many pics from this set but it was good pickens for a bust chase day!

I was seriously late the game on this storm. But I was never out of the game. I had missed a few of the other tornados that afternoon in Northern Yuma County. Coming from south to north I had to position myself correctly. Chaser Convergence was also in full swing so there were not may open areas to choose from.

 

For best pics of a Tornado and to be safe about it a storm such as this was moving North by Northeast... strategically, you want to be to the south east, southwest for the best light... Behind the RFD (Rear Flank Downdraft) It's all about timing, and I honestly didn't think it would produce a tornado til it was well west of my location. That was going to be the wrong guess... Though when I went due north of Wray I had a good viewing point but not in the safest location as you see.

 

I got lucky this day as...In my opinion, I found a perfect view, looking due south southeast. I ended up on the northwest side of the rotation. Dangerous yes...but this will eventually give me one excellent view of this tornado and all her glory.

 

Staying as safe as I could I wouldn't bail till it was about a mile away then I would head north again to a safer / better viewing position.

I did eventually get back in front of this cell, but it was dissipating. Not many pics but it sure was fun to get back out & be in my element. More storms to come!

It's Nebraska ... This our go time for severe weather & she didn't disappoint. This was the beginning of a 3 day severe weather event in South Central Nebraska.

 

Now my attention was the cell that was coming right at my location. In fact there were 2 cells. I was centered on this one in the beginning due to it had a severe warning on it. Both cells would eventually be severe warned.

 

Though this had some incredible photogenic storm structure. It had some minor rotation with this. It had my interest.
